Green Light For Amtrak?Service could be restored between New Orleans, SanfordPOSTED 10/22/2008 - Amtrak service between New Orleans and Sanford, Florida could be restored. The route through Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida that was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina could be reestablished now that President George W. Bush has signed a five-year authorization of the rail service. Bush signed the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 into law this past week. The act provides $1 million for Amtrak to conduct a study of the Sunset Limited route. Amtrak must submit the report within nine months on a projected timeline and costs for restoring service. |
